"This session was particularly memorable for three very good reasons. First, it featured the comeback gig of the reformed Electric Flag - featuring Buddy Miles, Mike Bloomfield, Nick Gravenites, Harvey Brooks and Barry Goldberg. Secondly, also appearing on the bill was the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, so this was the first time we were to meet Ted McKenna, who was later to replace Rod on drums. Thirdly, second on the bill, supporting us, believe it or not, was Abba! That was how diverse the music shows were in those days. They'd been booked onto the programme with us because their manager, the late, great Stikkan 'Stig' Anderson, was also representing Rory in Scandinavia through the massive Ema Telstar agency." -- Gerry McAvoy, 'Riding Shotgun'

"The soundtrack for this nightmare was provided by Stevie Wonder's Music of My Mind and Rory Gallagher's self-titled solo debut. To this day, when l hear any music from those two albums, memories of all kinds flood my soiled synapses. They were my only companions on that unguided tour through hell."
